Now here's an article on another event Queen Rania is hosting in a few days:

Jordan to host young Arab entrepreneurs

Young Arab entrepreneurs from Bahrain and other parts of the region will take part in a major business forum in Jordan from June 18 to 20.

The First Young Arab Entrepreneurs Business Forum is being organised by the United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO) Bahrain through its Arab Regional Centre for Entrepreneurship and Investment Training and the Arab Gulf Programme.

More than 100 entrepreneurs from Bahrain, Jordan, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Egypt, Yemen, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iraq, Palestine, Kuwait and the UAE are taking part in the forum, which is being held under the patronage of Queen Rania Al Abdulla of Jordan.http://www.tradearabia.com/tanews/ne...cle106637.html

I am sorry to have to do this here publicly on the thread as this message is not addressed to everyone, but specifically two individuals who seem to not be getting the message when I am communicating with them via PM — you know who you are. Everyone else can please disregard this message.

This thread is about the Jordanian King and Queen and their activities. This is not about any past or present Moroccan King and his policies within his country.

This is also not the place for personal discussions between two members. This is a public forum for everyone, and as such, private discussions are discouraged.

Within the last five minutes alone, I have had to remove 7-8 messages exchanged by two members who have derailed this new thread with an off-topic and private discussion that also violated our Copyright Policy.

If any further off-topic messages are posted, they will be deleted and the members involved will be suspended immediately.

The Laha cover looks wonderful and so do the pictures in the article (I love the one where she's barbecueing).
Would someone be kind enough to summarize it for those of us who dont speak Arabic? Thanks in advance.

another photo of Queen Rania from the Global Women's Action Network for Children (GWANC) Conference in Jordan, from Getty:

At first glance, the beautiful queen of an exotic Middle Eastern nation and an actress best known for playing lovelorn singleton Bridget Jones might seem an unlikely pairing. Jordan's glamorous Queen Rania and Texan belle Renee Zellweger proved they had plenty in common when they met up on the shores of the Dead Sea this week, however.
The two women, who share a commitment to children's causes, were pictured together as they kicked off a new initiative designed to help disadvantaged youngsters all over the planet. Both are hoping the Global Women's Action Network For Children will find success in its mission to combat high maternal and infant mortality rates in poor countries, while also guaranteeing access to education for young girls everywhere…

On the website from Spiegel it is said that after the interview King Abdullah talked about the possibilities of the German Team during the World Cup. He assured the President of Germany that Germany would certainly win. His son Hussein was not that politely. He expected that of course Brasil would win.
I hope that at the end the King will be right :D...

Maybe I'm going to post a ridicular question, but can you tell me if Keen Abulah can have more wifes? If yes Why he hasn't got married again?
Thanks
